    Honestly dont use a domain admin account for PDQ Deploy/Inventory.

    First choice would be to use LAPS  its free and pretty easy to setup.

    If you dont want to do that then this is what id suggest.

    1. Create a new domain user account (eg "PDQ")
    2. Create a new security group (eg "WorkstationAdmins")
    3. Add "PDQ" user account to "WorkstationAdmins" Group
    4. Using GPP add "WorkstationAdmins" Group to the Local Administrators group on each endpoint.
    5. Provide PDQ Deploy/Inventory with credentials to PDQ user account
